Meet the next generation

Lynsey Hooper is with sports broadcaster Anne-Marie Batson, plus women’s football journalist and expert in all things Scandinavian, Mia Eriksson to take you through the weekend’s WSL action and the World Cup draw.  Anne-Marie talks about what makes fellow Jamaican Bunny Shaw so good. Mia puts her Norway hat on to give us the lowdown on Arsenal’s new star Frida Maanum. And we hear reactions to the World Cup draw from journalists around the world: Alicia Ferguson on Australia, Julien Laurens on France and The Athletic's Meg Linehan on the USA. Plus, to continue on from our discussions this summer about the need to widen the talent pool so the England team is more diverse, we speak to that next generation of young Black players coming through. Anne-Marie hosts a discussion with 17-year-old Patience Kavule from Hilltop Women's FC, and 14-year-old Ava King from Crystal Palace WFC, along with former professional player and the PFA’s Women’s Football Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Executive, Fern Whelan.  WHAT’S WHEN?  PART 1a - Tottenham 0 - 3 Manchester City (1.45) PART 1b - Liverpool 0 - 2 Arsenal (9.30) PART 1c - Other WSL results roundup (16.45) PART 2 - World Cup draw (17.30) PART 3 - Next generation panel (26.00) PART 4 - Coming up this week (1.03.30) Producer: Sophie Penney Learn more about your ad choices.
